C'mon winter, lets go! New Alpina Red Tail Skis

Posted January 13 2012

Finally some snow in the forecast!

To go along with our resurgence of winter conditions we just received a shipment of some fresh new skis from Alpina!

The Alpina Red Tail is a model of lightweight backcountry touring ski that is perfect for the local xc trails like North Woods and Laurel Mountain. The 60 mm width underfoot is super stable, the full length metal edges provide stopping power and rock protection, and the agressive grip pattern locks into the snow for ascending steep hills with ease.
